Scheidler initiates proceedings for the RECALL of Stephen Holman, Kitsap District Court Judge.

Today, Bill Scheidler, chief activist with www.CorruptWA.com filed his statement with the Kitsap County Auditor describing the ‘official misconduct’ and violations of law committed by Stephen Holman, Kitsap District Judge. As is the case, at the core of the rotten onion you find a lawyer, and Stephen Holman validates this claim.

Demanding the RECALL and DISCHARGE of Stephen J. Holman from serving as Judge, Kitsap District Court, Department 4.

I, the undersigned, William Scheidler, a resident and registered voter of Kitsap County, WA, make this sworn and verified complaint upon my personal knowledge of the facts and circumstances involved in demanding the recall and discharge of Stephen J. Holman from Judge, Kitsap District Court, by the provisions established in RCW 29A.56.110.

WA State Bar Associate, Stephen J. Holman, WSBA #8451, serving as Judge, Kitsap District Court, (a court not of record) committed the following acts that constitute malfeasance, misfeasance, violation of his oath of office, and violations of Constitutional provisions and WA State Law and his recall is demanded per Sections 33 and 34 of WA Constitution Article 1.

FACTS: On November 19, 2014, I delivered to the District Court of Kitsap County evidence that another member of the judicial branch, David Ponzoha, clerk of the court of appeals II, committed seven gross misdemeanor and one misdemeanor act to further a fraud upon the court in the racketeering enterprise consisting of WA State Bar Associates, Scott Ellerby, WSBA #16277, Jeffrey Downer, WSBA #12625, and Kevin Hull WSBA #23994. This was noted on the District Court Docket as Case Y14-04890. The complete file for this case is included as an additional offer of proof.

On December 5, 2014, Stephen J. Holman, WSBA #8451, as Judge, Kitsap District Court, conducted a motion hearing to determine my standing to file criminal charges against David Ponzoha, per Criminal Rules for Courts of Limited Jurisdiction, rule 2.1(c).

Stephen J. Holman, WSBA #8451, as Judge, Kitsap District Court asked two WA State Bar associates, who serve as state/county prosecutors, to attend the December 5th hearing for the purpose of supplying ‘evidence.’ The court record identifies Jeremy Morris, WSBA #28722, as one of the prosecutors, the other is unidentified. The duty imposed upon these Bar Associates, serving as prosecutors, is mandated by statute, RCW 10.16.110, which states,

“It shall be the duty of the prosecuting attorney of the proper county to inquire into and make full examination of all the facts and circumstances connected with any case of preliminary examination,…”

These WSBA associates, Jeremy Morris and one other, serving as prosecutors, deliberately withheld evidence and failed to examine all the facts as they are required by law to do. The evidence and facts were pivotal as Judge Holman inquired, repeatedly, about the existence of this ‘evidence’. This “evidence” and its existence was based upon my sworn testimony that the “evidence” existed as a public document, an “Opening Brief,” and was held by defendant, David Ponzoha, in a pouch found at the appellate court.

A public document, as this “Opening Brief” is, is clearly evidence and fact available to these WSBA lawyers, Jeremy Morris and one other, serving as prosecutors. This “failure” of these two prosecutors to perform a statutory duty imposed upon them by RCW 10.16.110, to obtain this document and examine its factual value is “official misconduct” – a gross misdemeanor under RCW 9A.80.010, and constitutes “concealing evidence” – gross misdemeanor under RCW 9A.72.150.

Stephen Holman’s blind-eye to the failure of these two prosecutors, Jeremy Morris and one other, whose lawful duty was to inquire into and make a full examination of all the facts, constitutes “complicity” in these gross misdemeanor acts by these prosecutors under the principles of liability codified by WA Statute RCW 9A.08.020.

As a consequence of the WSBA lawyers, serving as prosecutors, neglecting their duty by deliberately withholding evidence and fact, Stephen Holman penalized me and denied my ‘wish to file criminal charges’ against David Ponzoha for his crimes. Now, Stephen Holman and the two prosecutors, due to their “official misconduct” must be held complicit in the criminal conduct committed by David Ponzoha under the same statutory principles of RCW 9A.08.020. Said another way, one deliberate act of misconduct to protect another deliberate act of misconduct, which protects yet another deliberate act of misconduct, and so on … implicates them all in each and every criminal act committed by one or all.

Furthermore, Stephen J. Holman, irrespective of the evidence withheld, intentionally misstated the law and misstated court rules as yet another despicable tactic to save the fraud being committed by his colleagues of the WA State Bar, Scott Ellerby, Jeffrey Downer and Kevin Hull, and judicial colleague David Ponzoha. For Stephen Holman to misstate law and court rules constitutes filing a “false report”, which is a gross misdemeanor under RCW 42.20.040.

As an adverse consequence to me, by the gross misdemeanor acts by Stephen Holman and the two prosecutors noted above, my request to file criminal charges against David Ponzoha was denied. And David Ponzoha was permitted to escape his crimes and the fraud upon the court in the theft of $119,272.45 by WA State Bar Associates Scott Ellerby, Jeffrey Downer and Kevin Hull, and their misallocation of government tax money in funding this fraud, was consummated approximately 4 weeks later.

Nevertheless, in my civic duty to report and prosecute criminal conduct committed by David Ponzoha occurring within the judicial branch, I provided the needed evidence – a copy of the document, and re-submitted an additional motion to amend Stephen J. Holman’s findings and order denying the criminal prosecution of David Ponzoha.

Now Stephen Holman had the evidence he needed. I also, in the motion to amend, corrected Stephen Holman’s errors of law and errors in citing court rules. I specifically reminded Stephen Holman that the people determine governments “just powers” not public servants determining their own power. I noted that this mandate reserved to the people is enshrined in WA State’s Constitution Article 1, Section 1. However Stephen Holman has ignored all that I have done, ignored all that I have provided and argued, so his colleague of the judicial branch, David Ponzoha, can escape the law and the racketeering scheme of Ellerby, Downer, Hull and Ponzoha can proceed to completion.

These unlawful things that Stephen J. Holman did are done to save a fraud being perpetrated upon the court by his colleagues of the judicial branch — David Ponzoha, Scott Ellerby, Jeffrey Downer and Kevin Hull – and constitute violations of Stephen Holman’s oath to be impartial and to faithfully perform the duties of his office – NOT to be complicit in the gross misdemeanor acts of Ponzoha, or to further a racketeering scheme by Ellerby, Downer, Kevin Hull and the two prosecutors – Jeremy Morris and one other.

RCW 3.34.080
Oath — District judges — Court commissioners.
Each district judge, district judge pro tempore and district court commissioner shall, before entering upon the duties of office, take an oath to support the Constitution of the United States and the Constitution and laws of the state of Washington, and to perform the duties of the office faithfully and impartially and to the best of his or her ability.

Additionally, during the motion hearing of December 5th, I raised the obvious fact that my wish to institute criminal charges against David Ponzoha, Clerk of the Court of Appeals II, concerns a judicial colleague of Stephen Holman. In addition my criminal complaint against David Ponzoha has at its vortex the “Official Misconduct” statute, RCW 42.20, which Stephen J. Holman must also abide by. These conflicts were of concern to me in that a colleague of and the laws governing David Ponzoha are shared with Stephen Holman. For these conflict reasons I indicated the “disqualification” of Stephen Holman was required – by law! I suggested an alternative to resolve this ‘conflict’ by having an impartial “jury” address the evidence and crimes of David Ponzoha. This alternative suggestion of mine, for an impartial decision-maker, is authorized by statute, RCW 2.28.150. Stephen Holman refused to disqualify himself for conflict and refused a lawful alternative to resolve the conflict. Clearly Stephen Holman’s direct interest was not to abide by the law, but to insure his colleagues, Ponzoha, Ellerby, Downer, and Hull, escaped accountability. Stephen Holman’s refusal to ‘disqualify’, which is mandated by law – RCW 3.34.110, are gross misdemeanor violations per RCW 9A.80.010 and RCW 42.20.080 and a misdemeanor violation per RCW 42.20.100. Full citations are noted below. Furthermore, Stephen Holman’s unlawful conduct to let Jeremy Morris, and the other WSBA lawyer serving as prosecutor, and David Ponzoha escape accountability for their misconduct is in effect a legislative act to legalize or grant immunity to these wrongdoers when he is without such legislative power notwithstanding such legalization or immunities are prohibited by WA Constitution Article 1, Sec 8, and Article 2, Section 28(12).

I certify and swear, under oath, that the facts set forth in this statement are true and correct and I believe the charges to be true and have personal knowledge of the facts upon which the stated recall grounds are based.

Holman is a corrupt scumbag. In court he would not order my ex-wife to give our son ADHD meds even though I showed letters from his doctors that he needed it and the she had originally been held in contempt of court for not give our son the meds. Holman should be tarred and feathered and run out of town on a rail!! He helped ruin my son’s life! He was mad because I caused corrupt Judge Costello to retire after a caught him partying with opposing attorney (with pictures) and accepting gifts of alcohol. Kitsap County, Kitsap Superior Court, Kitsap Sheriff’s and the Kitsap Prosecutors office are pits of corruption and vipers that needs to be cleaned out, the sooner the better. Did I mention that the Kitsap Sheriff’s stole 12 vintage firearms from me and the FBI/BATF would not investigate fellow cops. Time to do like the Declaration of independence says and for Americans to do their “Duty.”

The problem isn’t so much Holman, but rather it is the WA State Bar. Every WA State Lawyer – whether as judge or advocate, must promise to protect the WA State Bar or suffer disbarment. Until our WA State Legislators address this conflict in lawyers serving two masters our judicial system is a good-ol-boys club that dispenses favors rather than justice. And if not our legislators some courageous judge takes a stand against this racketeering enterprise – the WSBA, gives us back our justice system!
